CG | Chapter 3.1
A cheese bacon sandwich with pickles. Orange juice. With the thought of craving these two things like crazy, Sean woke up. He felt a hangover, but unlike usual, he didn't feel bad. In fact, he woke up feeling refreshed, thinking he should head straight to the kitchen to drink some orange juice. Just as he let out a satisfied sigh and tried to get up... "You're awake?" A voice that shouldn't be there reached his ears. No, it was more accurate to say it was a voice that couldn't possibly be…-

CG | Chapter 2.5
Sean woke up when the chilly night air tickled the back of his neck. In short sleeves, his bare arms, neck, and cheeks were covered in goosebumps. Cold. Thinking that, he clung to the warmth he felt on his chest and forehead. Then he realized something strange. Huh? It felt like his body was floating. His feet were dangling, and something solid was supporting his butt and thighs. He was sure he’d fallen asleep in Emily’s cozy storage room, but he had no idea when he’d ended up…-

Usually, when Sean looked at girls, he found them cute. He didn't feel captivated. All the girls he had dated were stunning beauties, but no matter how pretty they were, they didn't have an aspect that would make him lose his mind. Even when others envied their looks, it was the same. The feeling of possessiveness or desire that people feel towards someone they like— Lane was the only one. "You, if you say anything weird to Idris, it's over for both of us." "Why would I interfere in someone…-

As the Ford Bronco, which he could see from afar, got closer, Sean stepped out onto the road for him. The car got closer and closer. Seeing the custom license plate number 410-735 confirmed it was Lane. Even after all these years, he still couldn't figure out what those numbers meant. "Lane!" As he energetically waved his hand and stepped onto the road, the car came to a stop. The neatly maintained black off-roader stopped, and the window rolled down. Unable to hide his joy, Sean bent over and…-

"Idris doesn't like my type. He prefers quiet and plain types. I investigated through the kids about his past girlfriends and ideal types, and they were all like that." Somehow, something... As she said that, Lane's words crossed his mind. 'Dion is a quiet guy. He's similar to me, not very talkative, and doesn't particularly like meeting many people. So it's comfortable being with him.' Lane's statement echoed in his mind, making his heart feel heavy. But he soon pulled himself together. Emily…-

CG | Chapter 2.1
The weekend always flew by quickly. Before he knew it, it was already Wednesday—and during that time, Sean had been looking at apartments in the center of New Haven. Just like his mother had said, he concluded that buying a condo was unnecessary and decided to find an apartment to rent for the next two years. He had a vague yet certain intuition that he needed to save as much money as possible so his siblings could go to college. His mother claimed they were financially comfortable, but honestly,…-

Even if they're not repulsed, not many people actively seek out bugs. Lane's eyes widened in genuine shock. Sean was slightly taken aback by his more shocked reaction than expected. Even though Lane was someone who didn't care much about the world and played well on his own, Sean thought he would know that his tastes weren't mainstream. "Do you think it's gross too?" Lane, who had been frozen like someone facing a plot twist, asked quietly. Sean quickly shook his head and began to reassure…-

As Sean laughed and tried to soothe him, Lane fell silent. If he didn't like it, he would have pushed him away, but since he left him alone, it seemed his mood had improved. Sean chuckled and yawned. Although he usually woke up well, there were times when he slept for ten hours or more when he let his guard down, and today seemed to be one of those days. He had gone to bed early, yet he still felt sleepy. "Are you sleepy?" Lane, who had been silent, quietly asked. Sean, who was regretfully…-

Curious gazes turned toward Lane. The kids, who had already bonded in first grade, eagerly made room for him and bombarded him with questions, but Lane sat at his desk, seemingly oblivious to the attention and the chatter directed at him, completely absorbed in a thick picture book. A child who only looked at books filled with drawings of insects, flowers, and trees was quickly forgotten by the group. Still, a few kids continued to hover around Lane. Take Sean Delight, for example. Acting on his…-
